Linear Equation is the equation in which Variables are multiplied by

Linear Equation is the equation in which

Variables are multiplied by constants

and summed
No variables are multiplied together
No powers of variables greater than one, no fractional or negative powers
No roots, logarithms, exponents, trigonometric and other expressions of the variables

Linear equation in two variables x and y describes the straight line on the xy-plane

Linear equation in two variables x and y describes the straight

line on the xy-plane
Слайд 4

Parallel and perpendicular Two straight lines with slopes m1 and m2

Parallel and perpendicular

Two straight lines with slopes m1 and m2 are

parallel if m1=m2.
Two straight lines with slopes m1 and m2 are perpendicular if m1m2= -1.

Linear Cost Model Linear Cost Model Total Costs = Variable Costs

Linear Cost Model
Linear Cost Model

Total Costs = Variable Costs + Fixed

Costs

depend on the level of production

do not depend on the level of production

TC = m·x + b

variable costs per unit

fixed costs

amount of commodity produced

Break-even Analysis If TC > TR a loss If TC If

Break-even Analysis

If TC > TR a loss
If TC < TR a

profit
If TC = TR no loss and no profit

Supply and Demand Law of Supply - a relation specifying the

Supply and Demand

Law of Supply - a relation specifying the amount

of any commodity that manufacturers (or sellers) can make available in the market at various prices.
Law of Demand - a relationship that specifies the amounts of a particular commodity that consumers are willing to buy at various price levels.
